HeadSpace SoCal x Watercooler Meet (January 20th, 2023)
Copied my post over from the watercooler thread so it's easier to find :). As usual after any meetup/convention, it's long text post time :). It was wonderful getting to see everyone, both familiar faces and new ones, and get to talk and share our love of the hobby and gear. I had a ton of fun... -

Hey, could I get confirmation on the exact address where the meet up is going to be? I'm having a bit of trouble figuring it out. -

Nice, been meaning to try out both of those at one point or another. It’ll be great seeing you again :). -

I’ll be bringing my Shanling M8, my EE CIEMs, and a bunch of different adapters. Ive got 4.4 to 2.5, XLR to 4.4, and 4.4 to XLRs. As for snacks, what sort of snacks are you looking for? Stuff like chips and sodas, sandwiches, more pot luck type stuff like a thing of mac n cheese? -

I don't have a lot to bring with me, but I'll bring all I've got. I have my Shanling M8, BTR5, Ciems and the adapters I have laying around. Glad I'll be able to see some of y'all again ^^. Down to bring some snacks if there's a way to coordinate it. -

I'm in the Socal area and depending on when/where specifically would be totally down to come to another meet!- DraconicNerd

It's entirely possible to build something out that's equivalent to the top level portable gear for around the same price, though it's not as easy/straightforward once you get to the flagship players. It's been a while since I looked into it, but I distinctly remember someone (either GoldenSound...- DraconicNerd

The legend Evo and (to a lesser extent) Legend X's midrange forwardness is definitely a YMMV thing. It doesn't sound as forward as it graphs due to the bass somewhat counterbalancing it, though it's definitely to best to try first if possible. I find Odin to sound far far more forward than Evo...- DraconicNerd

This one's a lot more difficult than any headphone or IEM questions haha. In no particular order: Pink Floyd - Wish You Were Here Pink Floyd - Dark Side of the Moon King Crimson - In The Court of the Crimson King (Somewhat standard audiophile/music lover affair haha. Always enjoy some good...- DraconicNerd

Another person who somewhat enjoys driver flex here, as someone who struggles to get a good seal at times, it's nice to hear the reassuring crinkle.- DraconicNerd

Now that I've got the M8, I don't find myself using the M6 Pro anymore (sneaky promotion :P https://www.head-fi.org/classifieds/shanling-m6-pro-akm-cases.57280/). Eventually I'll get around to posting more in depth impressions once I can wear my Ciems again (allergies are not being kind), but...- DraconicNerd

Great player, just recently moved up the stack to a Shanling M8 and have no need for it anymore. It works great and sounds great and is in overall very good condition. There's one scuff on the glass above the screen and a small nick at the top but otherwise perfect. This comes with the player...- DraconicNerd
